The most common gun injuries are to the self through negligent discharges like this, typically into the leg, but can be a hand, the butt, the penis....

One's own butt?

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Yep, same as with the penis shots. Use a holster--not a waistband.

Thigh made sense because of holster and morons.

Thought the wasteband shit was for movies. Lol.

Obviously the other body parts need their own guns to prevent this happening.
